Church Father's on Cosmological and Genesis Matters - a short review of my limited knowledge

	St Augustine	St Basil	St Cyril of Jerusalem	Origen
Flat Earth?	No, round, but without antipodes	Neutral	Flat, ignore the philosophers!	I do not know
Crystalline spheres?	Yes	Yes	Probably no	I do not know
Earth immobile?	Yes	Yes	Probably yes	Yes
If St Cyril was pro-Bible and anti-philosophy to the extent of denying roundness of earth, because he thought it contradicted the Bible (even if St Basil in his cautious neutral stance claimed that the Bible did not tell), he may well have been rooted in Hebrew-Babylonian cosmological tradition, where a flat and possibly square earth is one storey of a cosmos where upper storeys do not include planetary spheres but both planets and "fixed stars" are freely moving within a higher dome, one above the stars. If so, there is no patristic consensus for crystalline spheres within the fixed stars, between the planets, and so one is not as per Council of Trent obliged to believe them.
Six literal days?	Wavered	Yes	Probably yes	Wavered/no
Young Earth?	Yes	Yes	Probably yes	Yes !
When Origen said he did not believe the six days literally took place, he clearly meant that God did it all in one moment. I have also read in his on Genesis that he exposes the days literally anyway, which is why I am not sure if he wavered or denied the six days. He did NOT deny the literal truth of the 72 ancestors reaching back from Christ to Adam. He did NOT even respect Egyptian Paganism which pretended to have tradition and documents from 40 millennia of human life on earth. At least as he was read by St Augustine who cites him in De Civitate.
Flood of Noah took place?	Yes	Probably yes	Probably yes	Possibly no
St Augustine thought it was both heretical to deny "as Origen" that the flood took place, in order to only affirm its symbolic meaning on "outside the Church no salvation", and to deny - I have forgotten as which other theologian - that it has such a symbolic meaning in order to only affirm its literal meaning. One had to affirm both meanings, the literal and the prophetic. Noah's Arc as Noah's Arc, and Noah's Arc as St Peter's Bark.
